“Carolyn was fantastic! She loved on my dog so well and I felt completely comfortable leaving her in Carolyn's care. She was prompt with the timing of her visit and was quick with her communication. She played with Jeans the whole weekend. And to top it off, we came home to a clean house and even clean sheets! I will definitely book with Carolyn again and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for 4 years now! I’m comfortable with staying in your home for overnights or just visiting during the day for walks and play time! Willing to travel to wherever you’re located. I currently have a part-time job, where I work Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. I am able to meet your pet(s) both before and after work, and if I am currently sitting, I make your animals a priority in my routine! Whether you want me at your home or just to stop-in, I will promise you your fur babies will receive excellent care. At this time I can only care for animals at the clients home! I will follow all instructions given to me and I always communicate with the client on a daily basis on how your pets are doing!
About: My family dog passed away in 2024, since then I’ve filled my doggy-shaped hole by volunteering at Coco’s Heart (dog rescue) and house/dog sitting for families in my area. I work from home, so I’m able to give your animals their much-deserved attention throughout the day! My experience ranges from young puppies just brought to rescue, teenage dogs, to senior dogs, all needing special attention in their own ways. I am punctual with medications, meals and bathroom breaks. I currently work from home, and while house sitting am able to provide around the clock care. For walks or part-time, my schedule may vary slightly. Maintaining and respecting my client’s home is of upmost importance when caring for pets. Keeping not only their environment clean and safe, but the owners as well is important to what I offer. Whether it’s expected or not, I will leave the place the same, if not better than you left it. I strive for frequent communication and avoid outside environments that may stress pets out.
About: I have taken care of various different pets ranging in various different breeds and ages. I have grown up on a farm and come with a very good work ethic! I have lots of flexibility with your needs and have experience with all different types of dogs! From anxiety to sick and elderly I have taken care of various different needs for pets and would be honored to accommodate your needs for your pets to! I currently attend school at the university of Wisconsin River Falls so day by day my schedule varies with my classes. But I can easily run to your house between classes. My weekends are usually very open, I do work a part time job but it’s very light hours with flexibility. I have lots of experience of giving medication to dogs and doing any special needs for them. I am more than comfortable walking or letting your dog out. I can also crate them if needed.
About: I have taken care of family/friends/other people’s pets since I was 13. I can feed, let out, walk, and provide enrichment/care for animals. I also have experience with administering medication to animals as well. I am a full-time student currently in my fall semester of college. I am available weekdays for the most part, as I can fit in pet sitting with my school schedule. I will care for your pets as if they were my own (I love my dogs)! I want to ensure that your pet feels safe and comfortable in my care, while also respecting your rules, such as keeping fence gates shut or crating pets when I am not there.
“Charlie provided excellent care for both our home and our pets. She was dependable, kind, and kept us updated while we were away. We returned to happy pets and a spotless home. We would not hesitate to book her again.”
“Briana was amazing with our two very high maintenance dogs even with some big last minute changes to their plans and care. Both of my dogs warmed up to her quickly and she took wonderful care of them. Absolutely recommend her!”
“We couldn't be happier with Deana as our in home dog sitter! We hired her for a week and she took great care of our two doggos. She was very conscientious of their needs and asked great questions during her meet and greet. She took care of our home and did everything we asked and more! We definitely recommend her and hope we can hire her again!”
“Jenny put up with our ridiculous Frenchies and even collected eggs from the chickens each day. The house was in the shape we left it and she communicated each day with updates. Would recommend!”
About: After 5 years working hands-on at two separate professional daycare and boarding facilities, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes (from Chihuahuas to Great Danes), temperaments, and energy levels. I am comfortable with everything from high-energy puppies to gentle senior dogs. I am a senior in college studying companion animals, which gives me a deep, science-backed understanding of canine body language, behavior, and welfare. Whether your pup is an active breed needing a fast-paced walk, a shy rescue needing patient care, or a large breed requiring confident handling, I know how to keep them safe, happy, and calm. I bring facility-level safety standards, reliable routines, and absolute dedication straight to your home. I am currently working part-time during the summer, so my schedule varies. This allows me to be highly flexible and available for midday walks and in-home pet sitting! I am dedicated to keeping your dog's daily schedule intact by providing reliable bathroom breaks, feedings, structured exercise, and plenty of focused attention and cuddles. With my extensive experience working with dogs, I bring professional level safety standards straight into your home. I am trained in reading subtle canine body language, managing environmental triggers on walks, and keeping environments secure and happy for your pup. Your home will be treated with absolute respect, your dog will receive attentive care, structured routines, and plenty of love, and you will receive frequent updates to give you complete peace of mind.
About: I’ve been dog sitting for neighborhood families since I was 10. I have walked dogs, fed and gave medication, spent time playing, and sometimes did grooming. I’m currently an enrolled as a full time college student but I will always make time for all the pups that are in my care! I’m very good at following the directions of the owners so that their pet is always safe and comfortable. I would never do something for the pet without permission of the owners. I am good with open communication with owners.
“Natasha was the right person to take care of our house, garden and OLD pets!! She took extraordinary care of our house and gardens. Our refrigerator has not been that clean since it was new!! Our vegetable garden was producing way too many cucumbers and zucchini and she helped to get them distributed. But the most important items that needed care are our elderly pets. They need extra care. We were concerned about leaving our old dog with someone who would be able to manage helping her get up and down stairs and outside. She also has plenty of meds. Our pets were well taken care of. We came home to a clean house and well taken care of pets. That is worth a lot to us. The daily reports and the pictures were important for us.”
“Madyson was awesome! She was very communicative and made us feel very comfortable that our pup was being well taken care of. Plus Madyson is a very sweet person! Our dog was very calm when we got home which she usually isn’t that way. 10 out of 10 and we are picky!!!”
About: Ive had cats and dogs my whole life. I just lost my dog last year after 14 years with him so being the home is empty, I thought I'd try this. I work during the week but I can make things work if needed. otherwise, weekends I'm always around. My daily work schedule is 7 am to 5 pm but evenings are free or if anyone needs help letting the animal out on the way home, I'm pretty flexible. I dont have close neighbors to add any intimidation to any pets and my yard is large to go on walks around it within my own property rather than walking down roads and what not.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Roberts
From the pictures and messages we received while at our daughter's wedding, I had no doubt that our dogs were in good hands with Rachel. From the moment our crew met with Rachel, I knew it would be a great fit. Without hesitation, I would book with Rachel again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Roberts on Rover is $55.5 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 2,309 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Roberts. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Roberts walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Roberts maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Roberts choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
